Grab A Bolt Action Airborne Starter Army From Warlord Games
May 27, 2017 by brennon
Warlord Games has been adding to their selection of Starter Armies for Bolt Action as they dropped their British Airborne force into the mix.
First off we have the Starter Army itself which you can see above which comes with a vast selection of their plastic miniatures for you to use as the core of your force plus a Vickers Machine Gun Team, Medium Mortar and even a PIAT Gun.
Additionally, thrown into the mix are some command elements as well as a flamethrower to burn the enemy out of their hiding place.
Expand Your Force
Adding to the army from that point requires some armour and a few more options. The Expansion Pack for the Airborne forces comes with an Airborne HQ unit, Jeep & Trailer and a Tetrarch.
You can then build on this even more if you want to collect together the complete collection with the Division Set.
This not only gives you the Starter Set but also the Expansion AND a Horsa Guilder plus some of the objective sets for good measure. You can stage the proper attack on Pegasus Bridge.
What do you think of the new Airborne force?
"You can stage the proper attack on Pegasus Bridge..."
Totally getting this
Tempting.
I think I should try building my starterset first … 😉
The postie just brought mine! The plastic Paras are another step forward for Warlord’s plastics 😎
Excellent figures full of character, two thumbs up from me!
I guess we can look forward to seeing your depressingly perfect troops real soon now, won’t we ? 😉
I think the complex camouflage scheme is the one thing that will stop me from buying them.
Have a look at waypn.. 😎
The Denison Smock camo is surely the easiest and most random of all WW2 camo pattern as it was applied by brush..
The goal for me is to save money and not add to my mountain of plastic/metal/resin.
So stop trying to convince me it is ‘easy’ .. my wallet would hate you. :-p
Don’t let the camo pattern stop you from building a british paras force. Painting the denison smock isn’t that hard at all. And the result and look on the tabletop is very rewarding and worth the effort imho….even for me, not being able to bring my miniatures above the level of “tabletop standard” painting wise.
Waiting for my order to be delievered, Horsa glider and Airborne platoon. These really complement my Market Garden force up to a full divisional level…adding a polish platoon alongside the Brits and the Yanks:-)
The new Horsa gliders are fantastic looking.
Warlord keep doing great stuff and the plastics are moving forward.
